- Not enabled by default. Needs kernel option FFS_SNAPSHOT.
- Change parameters of ffs_blkfree.
- Let the copy-on-write functions return an error so spec_strategy
may fail if the copy-on-write fails.
- Change genfs_*lock*() to use vp->v_vnlock instead of &vp->v_lock.
- Add flag B_METAONLY to VOP_BALLOC to return indirect block buffer.
- Add a function ffs_checkfreefile needed for snapshot creation.
- Add special handling of snapshot files:
Snapshots may not be opened for writing and the attributes are read-only.
Use the mtime as the time this snapshot was taken.
Deny mtime updates for snapshot files.
- Add function transferlockers to transfer any waiting processes from
one lock to another.
- Add vfsop VFS_SNAPSHOT to take a snapshot and make it accessible through
a vnode.
- Add snapshot support to ls, fsck_ffs and dump.

uvm_anon_release: a new function to free anon-owned PG_RELEASED page.
uvm_anfree: we can't wait for the page here because the caller might hold
amap lock. instead, just mark the page as PG_RELEASED.
who unbusy the page should check the PG_RELEASED.
uvm_aio_aiodone: uvm_anon_release() instead of uvm_page_unbusy()
if appropriate.
uvmfault_anonget: check PG_RELEASED.
to pool_init. Untouched pools are ones that either in arch-specific
code, or aren't initialiased during initial system startup.
Convert struct session, ucred and lockf to pools.
insert the replacement page into the same position
as the original page on the object memq so that
genfs_putpages (and lfs) won't be confused.

the latter is not a appropriate place to do so and it broke vfork.
- deactivate pmap before calling cpu_exit() to keep a balance of
pmap_activate/deactivate.
which is zero by default.
perform rbtree sanity checks only when it isn't zero
because the check is very heavy weight especially when
there're many entries.
in the case that there's no cached entries,
if kmem_map is already up, allocate a entry from it
so that we won't try to vm_map_lock recursively.
XXX assuming usage pattern of kmem_map.
and uncontrolled growth.
The key fix is from Dan Carasone, who noticed that buf_canfree() was
counting in _bytes_ but freeing in _buffers_, which caused the instant
drop to lowater observed by some users.
We now control the rate of growth; the probability of getting a new
allocation is inversely proportional to the current size of the
cache. This idea is from a long-ago conversation with Kirk McKusick
and, if memory serves, was used for the file-system cache in some
other BSD variant at some point in history.
With growth and shrinkage more or less dealt with, we return the
default maximum cache size to 15%. The default _minimum_ cache size
is raised from 1/16 of the maximum cache size to 1/8, since 1/16 was
chosen when the maximum size was 30% of memory.
Finally, after observing the behaviour of the pagedaemon and the
buffer cache drainer under pathological workloads (e.g. a benchmark
that steps through 75% of available memory backwards) I have moved
the call to buf_drain() to the beginning of the pagedaemon from the
end; if the pagedaemon bogs down, it still won't get run as often
as it should, but at least this way it will see the state of the
free count and free target _before_ the scan step does its thing.
